Standard (EADGBE)

 You come on strong telling everyone

About your latest role

 How you saved the movie, stole the show

So you've been told

 And if you have no time for all your offers

You'll see that I get called

 And if you have no time for all your men

You'll see that I get balled

 Well I don't expect humility

 But what about some good old

 Dishonest modesty

 You say that you can understudy

All the other parts

 That you can write a song that will make us cry

And touches all our hearts

 And you can House and Garden

Vogue and Glamour, Mademoiselle

 Well, I know you can Bitch and Screw

And Penthouse just as well

 No I don't expect humility

 But what about some good old

 Dishonest modesty

You try to be unique

But somehow something's wrong

 Your flower childish vision of life

Cannot last too long

 You're over thirty and underweight

Though you call yourself petite

And you hang around with all the clowns

Who think they're so elite

 Well I don't expect humility

 But what about some good old

 Dishonest modesty

 No I don't expect humility

 But what about some good old

 Dishonest modesty
